    Workflow for matching colors on this map?

    Automatically Remove Backgrounds!

    Interesting article, zero! My guess is that this is just one of the many examples of the tip of the iceberg of new applications we will be seeing based on deep, multi-layer ANNs. Tom M

    Workflow for matching colors on this map?

    PS - Welcome to PSG. BTW, we're neighbors! I live in the 'burbs just north of the city and taught the senior thesis design course at one of the major nearby universities for 12 years before I retired. Cheers, Tom M

    Workflow for matching colors on this map?

    To expand a bit on the excellent advice MrToM gave, I would break up the image into a luminosity component (ie, a layer whose blending mode is luminosity), and then, above that, a color component (ie, a layer above the previous one, whose blending mode is set to color). This will allow you...

    Hello from Washington, DC

    Hi, welcome, & your post was (for some bizarre reason) placed in moderation & I sorted that out. More later, Tom

    Please help correct Album Cover color

    ...dialed back the sharpening, added some NR, reduced cyan cast on lapels, added some color & texture back into the blown shoulder of the sweater. T

    Please help correct Album Cover color

    Ahh ... I see Ged once again beat me to the punch by a few minutes, LOL. It's interesting to see how close our two completely independent versions came out. The main difference that I see is that I added a bit of sharpening (...maybe too much), but I also cleaned up a lot of the little black...

    Please help correct Album Cover color

    Accurate color reproduction, which is essentially what you are asking for, is a surprisingly difficult topic. If you go to Google Images and type in {dean martin dino italian love songs album}, you will see a page full of reproductions of this album cover, each of which has slightly different...

    Is there a Photoshop plugin with additional transform resampling filters?

    Hi Jerry - Maybe I'm interpreting the OP's request too literally, but I thought he was requesting a tool that does other afine transforms (eg, perspective, tilts, etc.), not just scaling / resizing. I own, and love Photo Zoom Pro, but it definitely only does straight scaling. I had never...

    Poor Editing?

    These appear to be two different photographs. If that is the case, and the 2nd isn't some sort of heavily modified / manipulated version of the 1st, then the first thing I would investigate is whether both originals started out with the same quality. At the risk of stating the obvious, it...

    Is there a Photoshop plugin with additional transform resampling filters?

    I'm certainly not the last word in this, but I haven't seen any 3rd party transform tools that offer Hermite, Lanczos, etc. algorithms. About the closest thing I've seen are some plugins that do simple image scaling (ie, without the other, more general transforms) but do offer a choice of...

    Restore faded photo

    That's great info to have, Mlyles! Thank you! FWIW, while you were typing, I did a quick in-between version of Jerry's and mine, just to see what it would look like, but now, with the info you gave us, we can surely get even closer. Cheers, Tom M PS - I've got to head out in a few...

    Restore faded photo

    Hi mlyles & welcome to PSG! Unfortunately, I have to disagree pretty strongly with your statement that "the borders are the original colors of the photo". I've seen a lot of different soils in my life, and I've seen a lot of faded prints, but I've never seen any soils that are the type of...

    Restore faded photo

    Hum... I'm still bothered that we don't really know the color of the soil and crops, but now that I see Jerry's, my vote would be for colors somewhere in-between his 2nd version and mine, LOL. Nice job, Jerry. Tom M

    Restore faded photo

    We don't know the actual color of the soil and other things in the image, so, that being said, here's my guess at how it might have looked. Also, I started to remove the hundreds of small white spots on the image and gave up part way through. They are easy to remove, just tedious...

    Why does my image look crap on Instagram?

    Since this is almost certainly a problem with how Instagram handles images and doesn't have anything to do with the method (ie, Photoshop) you used to generate the image you submitted, you probably would be better served by also posting this question on an Instagram technical help discussion...

    Damaged Film Negatives HELP!

    PPS - Looking at your image on my big desktop machine /monitor instead of on my tiny cell phone, I now see that there is both fine and coarse banding. This is just too much to fix by any of the techniques we've been discussing. Either drop in a completely new sky background, or, as I said...

    Damaged Film Negatives HELP!

    I am almost positive that the problem was not on the negative, and is that the scanner at the so-called "pro lab" is dirty and its feed mechanism is likely not smooth. They almost certainly caused these problems, and they should refund your money so that you can have your negative scanned at a...
